Doctor Player Chapter 379

But when I think about it... ... It certainly seemed like it could have sounded that way.

If you listen to it full of prejudice and twist it.

“Perhaps that’s because you have to get perfect power to serve the people.”

“If I ascend the throne as it is now, I will not be able to escape from the shadow of Grand Duke Gideon.”

People looked at Raymond with admiration.

“You’re trying to walk the thorny road for the sake of the people, even though there is an easy road.”

“After all, it wasn’t called light for nothing.”

“They say you’re a noble fool with no countermeasures.”

Such reactions are not limited to ordinary aristocrats.

Peian VII’s eyes burned brightly.

‘Grandson! I will protect your future!’

Rashid, the bookkeeper, was moved by Raymond’s spirit (?), and Sylvene crossed her arms excitedly.

“That’s why I have no choice but to admit it. I will help too.”

... ... Raymond didn’t know what the hell he was acknowledging and helping.

The disciples also scratched Raymond’s clothes.

“Haha, I can’t help it. You are a master who always has no plans for the sake of the people.”

“Your Highness, you can eat enough beef now. You don’t have to work too hard!”

“Master, the thorny road! I will protect you!”

“Meow!”

“Why are you getting more and more cool like this?”

“... ... .”

Raymond’s face grew whiter at those reactions.

‘Oh no... ... I just don’t want to be king!’

But then, a heavy voice crossed the hall.

“As expected, it’s great.”

It was Prince Gideon!

He looked at Raymond with a strange expression.

“I understood your words well.”

‘What did you understand?!’

I got it, but the atmosphere wasn’t serious.

‘Yes, I heard your declaration of war,’ he said on his face.

“As expected, it was a choice that was not wrong with my expectations. I’m looking forward to it. Then, I will look forward to the future work with a happy heart.”

“Oh no... ... ! for a moment!”

But Gideon didn’t listen.

He turned his back and disappeared.

The nobles of the Grand Duke disappeared like the ebb tide.

Raymond broke out in a cold sweat.

‘Oh no, that’s not it... ... .’

Raymond wept.

You are in a position to fight the scariest person.

ruined it

Meanwhile, Raymond wasn’t the only one in trouble today.

“Damn it!”

A man let out a rough voice.

It was Lawrence ‘Lord’ who had been aiming for the throne all this time!

‘You bastard Gideon! what? Aren’t I worthy of the throne? Damn you son of a bitch!’

Lawrence gritted his teeth as he remembered the contemptuous gaze Gideon had looked at him.

But it wasn’t Archduke Gideon who was the most heated.

Just Raymond.

‘I will ascend the throne with the sincere blessings of everyone in the kingdom.’

That misleading attitude that the trend is already in oneself. At that time, Raymond didn’t even care about Lawrence.

The humiliation Lawrence felt on the spot could not be expressed in words.

‘I won’t leave you both alone. never.’

Lawrence grated his teeth.

His eyes shone eerily.

A method came to Lawrence Noir Lord’s mind.

A way to get rid of Raymond and Gideon at the same time.

‘I tried to be a little more careful, but now that it’s like this, I don’t think it’s necessary. If I get rid of these two, the throne will naturally return to me.’

Thinking so, Rod turned on the communication orb.

And contacted the other party.

first purpose.

Avoid fighting with Prince Gideon.

he’s a pacifist

I didn’t want to have a political battle that didn’t even make money. Especially with that terrifying Grand Duke Gideon.

And the second most important purpose.

The throne must be handed over to someone else.

‘I passed the crisis at that time, but soon the story of the crown prince will come out again. If I don’t do something definite before then, I’ll have to become the king.’

If the situation continues as it is now, he was the king’s winner.

Aren’t there Lawrence Rashid Sylvenes and others?

It doesn’t work.

Because what people want as king right now is Raymond.

So we need to turn our attention to others.

‘But how?’

Raymond nervously bit his nails.

‘Could such a thing be possible?’

What can I say to myself... ... Since Raymond is a master of image making and a master of agitation, it is not easy to win people’s support.

‘You have to do it anyway. somehow.’

Raymond desperately contemplated a method.

‘How to avoid the throne while avoiding a fight with Archduke Gideon. method... ... .’

But again, it didn’t come easily.

To be honest, he is a genius, but the difficulty was too high.

It was stifling.

‘no! If I don’t come up with a way, I’ll fight Prince Gideon and ascend the throne. then my life is ruined somehow... ... !’

It was time to pull my hair out again.

Linden came.

“Your Highness has received a letter from the Free Cities Association. This is a letter from the terrifying Ice Duke.”

“Ice Duke?”

It seems to be referring to the crimson saintess Orbia.

‘what?’

Opening the letter, the current status of the Free Cities Alliance was written.

Things worked out, the drug lords were all executed and the right ones were elected.

‘... ... Then what do you do? I’m in danger of ruining my life here.’

Raymond swallowed a tear.

Even when things were going well in the Free Cities Alliance, I dreamed that I would soon become super-rich. What does this mean?

However, there was an unexpected phrase at the end.

[If you have time, please come to the Free Cities Association. I hope to resolve the ruins I mentioned before the drought begins.]

Ancient ruins!

It was a suggestion I heard from Orbia the other day.

When conquering the ruins, it was very important to free the people of the southern region of the Free City Alliance from the pain of lack of water.

but... ... To be honest, Raymond wasn’t very interested.

‘My life is in danger, but the ancient ruins are some kind of ancient ruins.’

He let out a deep sigh.

‘Above all, there’s no way I can do it.’

It is a gateway that only the noble recognized by the ruins can challenge.

How many noble people have challenged it so far? Every adult in the Free Cities Alliance must have tried it once.

However, since all the saints and women who ate raw meat like that were eliminated, couldn’t it be possible that it was Raymond?

‘I’m a false saint.’

I was in the middle of breathing a long sigh with a distraught heart.

Raymond suddenly had an idea.

It was a change of thinking.

‘Wait a minute. These ancient ruins... ... Could I use it?’

Raymond swallowed.

Cheer up!

A trick passed through my head!

‘If we fail to conquer this ancient ruin... ... People will see me again.’

The crux of the matter now was Raymond’s reputation.

His reputation was too high.

That’s why people keep making useless misunderstandings.

But honestly, I didn’t need this much fame to make money. On the contrary, it was only a hindrance now.

then?

Just change the image.

‘This job is bound to fail. And what if it fails? My reputation will be shaken.’
